Some of the movies dont get info - Dotan - 2010-04-09

I have few movies in my folder and most are read fine
i get the thumnail and fanart and details about the movie
but for example when i try to get ingo for xmen it doesnt give me details
it worked fine before i had details for that move also
also i get some different cover in libary mode and in regular mode
is that ok?
anyway what should i do to fix it?
im using XBMC 9.11 Build26017

Try using some .nfo files and put a link to the imdb page in the file. name it exactly the same as the movie filename. i.e. xmen.mkv - xmen.nfo

Then stick the path to the imdb site for xmen in the nfo.

What scraper are you using - if its the moviedb, your naming has to exactly match the entry there - in this case the movie title is x-men, also try and include the year in brackets after the folder name ie x-men (2000)
